Nine Step Turas Columbanus/The Columban Way Pilgrim Heritage Walk
National Heritage Week, 15th - 23rd August 2020
During the current pandemic, for many people it is not feasible to walk some of the 590-km route of Turas Columbanus/The Columban Way from Mt. Leinster on the Wexford/Carlow border to Bangor, Co. Down. However, to mark National Heritage Week from 15th-23rd August 2020, the Association Friends of St. Columbanus has put together a Nine Step Turas Columbanus/The Columban Way Pilgrim Heritage Walk that focuses on the central themes and quotations from the letters and writings of St. Columbanus.
